NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

 

1.Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization

 

Presidential Realty Corporation (“Presidential” or the “Company”), is operated as a self-administrated, self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”). The Company is engaged principally in the ownership of income producing real estate. Presidential operates in a single business segment, investments in real estate related assets.

 

Basis of Presentation and Going Concern Considerations

 

At March 31, 2014, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability, and to increase working capital through raising debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.

 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the respective periods have been reflected. These consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed on March 28, 2014.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Presidential Realty Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Additionally, the consolidated financial statements include 100% of the account balances of PDL, Inc. and Associates Limited Co-Partnership (the “Hato Rey Partnership”). PDL, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Presidential and the general partner of the Hato Rey Partnership) and Presidential own an aggregate 60% general and limited partnership interest in the Hato Rey Partnership. These partnerships are being reported as discontinued operations (see Note 4). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Rental Revenue Recognition

 

The Company acts as lessor under operating leases. Rental revenue is recorded on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs. Recognition of rental revenue is generally discontinued when the rental is delinquent for ninety days or more, or earlier if management determines that collection is doubtful.

1.Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company assesses the collectability of amounts due from tenants and other receivables, using indicators such as past-due accounts, the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history and the ability of the tenant or debtor to meet its payment obligations. Management’s estimate of allowances for doubtful accounts is subject to revision as these factors change. Rental revenue is recorded on the accrual method and rental revenue recognition is generally discontinued when the tenant in occupancy is delinquent for ninety days or more. Bad debt expense is charged for vacated tenant accounts and subsequent receipts collected for those receivables will reduce bad debt expense. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, allowance for doubtful accounts for continuing operations relating to tenant obligations was $4,935 and $5,485, respectively.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net loss per share data is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding (excluding non-vested shares) during each year. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, including the dilutive effect, if any, of non-vested shares. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the weighted average shares outstanding as used in the calculation of diluted loss per share do not include 2,440,000 and 740,000, respectively, of outstanding stock warrants and options as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

Cash

 

Cash includes cash on hand, cash in banks and cash in money market funds.

 

Management Estimates

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of income and expense for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

The Company follows the guidance of the Presentation and Property, Plant, and Equipment Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), with respect to long-lived assets classified as held for sale. The ASC requires that the results of operations, including impairment, gains and losses related to the properties that have been sold or properties that are intended to be sold, be presented as discontinued operations in the statements of operations for all periods presented and the assets and liabilities of properties intended to be sold are to be separately classified on the balance sheet. Properties designated as held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated.

 

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

 

The Company follows the guidance of the recognition of current and deferred income tax accounts, including accrued interest and penalties, in accordance with ASC 740-10-25. Under this guidance, if the Company’s tax positions in relation to certain transactions were examined and were not ultimately upheld, the Company would be required to pay an income tax assessment and related interest. Alternatively, the Company could elect to pay a deficiency dividend to its shareholders in order to continue to qualify as a REIT and the related interest assessment to the taxing authorities.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2014, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update No (ASU 2014-08), “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”. ASU 2014-08 on Discontinued Operations changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modified related disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as: (i) a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale that represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results or (ii) an acquired business or nonprofit activity that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. The standard states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a major geographical area of operations, (ii) a major line of business, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. Under the current US GAAP, an entity is prohibited from reporting a discontinued operation if it has certain continuing cash flows or involvement component after the disposal. The new guidance eliminates these criteria.

4.Discontinued Operations

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Company designated PDL, Inc. & Associates, Limited co-partnership, Presidential Matmor Corp. and PDL, Inc. as discontinued operations. All amounts have been adjusted retrospectively for the change through the date of foreclosure.

5.Mortgage Debt

 

On June 8, 2012, we closed on a mortgage and line of credit for a combined total of $1,000,000 with Country Bank for Savings on the Mapletree Industrial Center. The mortgage is for $500,000 at a 5% interest rate, for a term of 5 years. Thereafter the interest will adjust monthly equal to the bank’s Prime Rate, plus 1% with an interest rate floor of 5%, for a term of 15 years. We received $459,620 of net proceeds. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $459,183 and $465,309, respectively. The line of credit is for $500,000, with an interest rate of 1% over the bank’s Prime Rate (3.25% at March 31, 2014). The balance outstanding at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $500,000. The line of credit is due on demand. Both the mortgage and the line of credit are secured by the Mapletree Industrial Center, in Palmer, Massachusetts.

 

Hato Rey Partnership

 

PDL, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Presidential) was the general partner of the Hato Rey Partnership. Presidential and PDL, Inc. had an aggregate 60% general and limited partner interest in the Hato Rey Partnership. The Company exercised effective control over the partnership through its ability to manage the affairs of the partnership in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the Hato Rey Partnership in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. From March 2012 through September 23, 2013 (date of foreclosure), the Company had reported the partnership as a discontinued operation.

 

The Company advanced $2,670,000 to the partnership to be used for building improvements and for operations. The loan, which was advanced to the partnership, as needed, earned interest at the rate of 13% per annum, with interest and principal to be paid out of the positive cash flow from the property or upon a refinancing of the First Mortgage on the property. On November 12, 2013 we contributed the entire loan balance of $2,670,000 and accrued interest of $1,614,941 to the Hato Rey Partnership.

 

6.Income Taxes

 

Presidential has elected to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code. A REIT which distributes at least 90% of its real estate investment trust taxable income to its shareholders each year by the end of the following year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a more likely than not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken. If the Company’s tax position in relation to a transaction was not likely to be upheld, the Company would be required to record the accrual for the tax and interest thereon. As of March 31, 2014, the tax years that remain open to examination by the federal, state and local taxing authorities are the 2010 – 2013 tax years and the Company was not required to accrue any liability for those tax years.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $209,000 ($.05 per share) which was all ordinary loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company had a tax loss of approximately $352,000 ($.10 per share), which was all ordinary loss.

7.Commitments, Contingencies and Related Parties

 

A.Commitments and Contingencies

 

1)Presidential is not a party to any material legal proceedings. The Company may, from time to time, be a party to routine litigation incidental to the ordinary course of its business.

 

2)In the opinion of management, the Company’s Mapletree property is adequately covered by insurance in accordance with normal insurance practices.

 

B.Related Parties

 

1)Executive Employment Agreements

 

a.Nickolas W. Jekogian – On January 8, 2014, the Company and Mr. Nicholas W. Jekogian, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, entered into an amendment to Mr. Jekogian’s employment agreement dated November 8, 2011. The amendment provides for (i) the extension of the employment term from May 3, 2013 to December 31, 2015, (ii) continuation of Mr. Jekogian’s base salary through the balance of the term at the rate of $225,000 per annum (subject to the continued deferral of the payment of the base salary until a Capital Event), (iii) removal of the $200,000 cap on the amount of any annual bonus that might be awarded Mr. Jekogian, (iv) the issuance to Mr. Jekogian of a “Warrant” (as described below) to purchase 1,700,000 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock in exchange for the complete cancellation of $425,000 of the deferred compensation accrued under Mr. Jekogian’s employment agreement, (v) the issuance of a “Transaction Warrant” (as described below) to Mr. Jekogian upon the occurrence of a Capital Event, and (vi) an increase in severance benefits from three months to six months in the event of a termination of Mr. Jekogian’s employment following a change of control or a termination for “good reason” as defined in the employment agreement. The payment of any bonus and base salary will continue to be deferred until a “Capital Event” occurs, which is defined as the receipt by the Company of at least $20,000,000 in cash or property from capital-raising activities.

 

The Transaction Warrant is a warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock to be issued to Mr. Jekogian upon the closing of each acquisition transaction by the Company of cash or property (including capital commitments for the purchase of assets). A copy of the form of Transaction Warrant is annexed as an Exhibit to the amendment to Mr. Jekogian’s employment agreement. Each Transaction Warrant, when issued, will entitle Mr. Jekogian to purchase the number of shares of Class B Common Stock determined by multiplying the total value of the transaction for which the Transaction Warrant is being issued times 4.75% and dividing the amount thereby obtained by the “Transaction Price”. The exercise price of the Transaction Warrant will be the Transaction Price. The Transaction Price is the price at which owners of assets or third party investors providing capital or capital commitments have the right to acquire or are issued shares of Class B Common Stock (a) in exchange for interests in real estate assets or (b) in exchange for interests or investments in operating partnerships or other vehicles in which the Company has an interest and which own or are acquiring real estate assets or (c) in exchange for providing capital and/or capital commitments. Each Transaction Warrant will become exercisable six months after issuance. The Transaction Warrant will not be exercisable for any shares that would be deemed “Excess Shares” as that term is defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation. Mr. Jekogian agreed not to exercise or attempt to exercise any Transaction Warrant for a number of shares which, when taken together with his other ownership of the Company’s securities, would result in the issuance of any Excess Shares.

The Transaction Warrant contains a cashless exercise feature. The Transaction Warrant also contains registration rights which permit Mr. Jekogian to demand one resale registration statement on Form S-3 at any time six months following the completion of a registered offering by the Company and unlimited piggyback registration rights, subject to customary cutbacks.

 

As provided in the amendment to Mr. Jekogian’s employment agreement, on January 8, 2014 the Company issued to Mr. Jekogian a Warrant to purchase 1,700,000 shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock in exchange for the complete cancellation of $425,000 of the deferred compensation accrued under Mr. Jekogian’s employment agreement. The Warrant becomes exercisable only upon the expiration of six (6) months from the date of the Company’s consummation of a Capital Event and will expire five and one half years following the date it first becomes exercisable. The Warrant will also terminate if Mr. Jekogian terminates his employment and/or resigns as a director of the Company without “Good Reason” or without the consent of the Company prior to the date the Warrant becomes exercisable. The Company’s certificate of incorporation contains limitations on the ownership of shares of the Company’s common stock. Those restrictions limit, among other things, any person from owning more than 9.2% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as more particularly set forth in the Company’s certificate of incorporation. The Warrant is not exercisable for any shares that would be deemed “Excess Shares” as that term is defined in the certificate of incorporation. Mr. Jekogian agreed not to exercise or attempt to exercise the Warrant for a number of shares which, when taken together with his other ownership of the Company’s securities, would result in the issuance of any Excess Shares. The Warrant contains a cashless exercise feature. The Warrant also contains registration rights which permit Mr. Jekogian to demand one resale registration statement on Form S-3 at any time six months following the completion of a registered offering by the Company and unlimited piggyback registration rights, subject to customary cutbacks.

 

b.Alexander Ludwig – On January 8, 2014, the Company and Mr. Alexander Ludwig, a Director, President, Chief Operating Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Company entered into an amendment to Mr. Ludwig’s employment agreement dated November 8, 2011.

10.Stock Options and Warrants

 

On November 8, 2011, the Company issued 740,000 options at an exercise price of $1.25. A total of 148,000 shares vested six months after the grant date. The aggregate intrinsic value was $0.00. The remaining options vest upon the achievement of performance milestones. Options vesting on the achievement of performance milestones will not be recognized as compensation until such milestones are deemed probable of achievement. As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has approximately $592,000 of unrecognized compensation expense respectively, related to unvested share-based compensation awards. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, compensation expense related to stock options and warrants was $0. Approximately $592,000 will vest upon the achievement of performance milestones.

 

On January 8, 2014, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 1,700,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.10 per share of the Company’s Class B Common Stock in exchange for the complete cancellation of $425,000 of the deferred compensation accrued under Mr. Jekogian’s prior employment agreement.

The Warrant becomes exercisable only upon the expiration of six (6) months from the date of the Company’s consummation of a Capital Event and will expire five and one half years following the date it first becomes exercisable. The Warrant will also terminate if Mr. Jekogian terminates his employment and/or resigns as a director of the Company without “Good Reason” or without the consent of the Company prior to the date the Warrant becomes exercisable.

 

11.Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were determined using available market information and various valuation estimation methodologies. Considerable judgment was required to interpret the effects on fair value of such items as future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. Also, the use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. However, we believe reported amounts approximate fair value.

Overview

 

Presidential is a Delaware corporation organized in 1983 to succeed to the business of a company of the same name which was organized in 1961 to succeed to the business of a closely held real estate business founded in 1911. Since 1982, we have elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for Federal and State income tax purposes. We own, directly or indirectly, interests in real estate and interests in entities which own real estate.

 

On November 8, 2011, we and PDL Partnership, a New York general partnership (“PDL Partnership”), the general partners of which are Jeffrey F. Joseph (a director and former officer), Steven Baruch (a former director and former officer) and Thomas Viertel (a former director and former officer), entered into a series of transactions with the investors and Signature Community Investment Group LLC (together with its affiliates, “Signature”)(“Strategic Transaction”). Signature is owned by Nickolas W. Jekogian, III, the promoter of the stock transactions included in the Strategic Transaction. The Strategic Transaction among other things resulted in the termination of our plan of liquidation.

 

We outsource the management of the Mapletree Industrial Center to Signature Community Management.

 

We obtain funds for working capital and investment from our available cash, operating activities and refinancing of mortgage loans on our real estate.

 

On June 8, 2012, we closed on a mortgage and line of credit for a combined total of $1,000,000 with Country Bank for Savings on the Mapletree Industrial Center. The mortgage is for $500,000 at a 5% interest rate, for a term of 5 years. Thereafter the interest will adjust monthly equal to the bank’s Prime Rate, plus 1% with an interest rate floor of 5%, for a term of 15 years. We received $459,620 of net proceeds. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $459,183 and $465,309, respectively. The line of credit is for $500,000, with an interest rate of 1% over the bank’s Prime Rate (3.25% at March 31, 2014). The balance outstanding at both March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $500,000. The line of credit is due on demand. Both the mortgage and the line of credit are secured by the Mapletree Industrial Center, in Palmer, Massachusetts.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability and to increase working capital by raising capital through debt and or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements and disclosures. These estimates require difficult, complex and subjective judgments. Management has discussed with the Audit Committee the implementation of the critical accounting policies described below and the estimates required with respect to such policies.

 

Real Estate

 

Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Additions and improvements are capitalized and repairs and maintenance are charged to rental property operating expenses as incurred. Depreciation is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The useful life of each property, as well as the allocation of the costs associated with a property to its various components, requires estimates by management. If management incorrectly estimates the allocation of those costs or incorrectly estimates the useful lives of its real estate, depreciation expense may be miscalculated.

 

The Company reviews each of its properties for impairment if events or changes in circumstances warrant. If impairment were to occur, the property would be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company assesses the recoverability of its investment in real estate based on undiscounted cash flow estimates. The future estimated cash flows of a property are based on current rental revenues and operating expenses, as well as the current local economic climate affecting the property. Considerable judgment is required in making these estimates and changes in these estimates could cause the estimated cash flows to change and impairment could occur. As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s net real estate was carried at approximately $590,000.

 

Rental Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes rental revenue on the straight-line basis from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to existing leases, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. Certain leases require the tenants to reimburse a pro rata share of real estate taxes, utilities and maintenance costs.

 

Income Taxes

 

We operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust under Sections 856 to 860 of the Code. Under those sections, a REIT which meets certain requirements is not subject to Federal income tax on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders, if at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (exclusive of capital gains) is so distributed. As a result of our ordinary tax loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, there is no requirement to make a distribution for the first quarter of 2014. In addition, no provision for income taxes was required at March 31, 2014.

Results of Operations

 

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013:

 

   Three Months Ended March 31, 
   2014   2013 
Revenue  $219,657   $214,105 
           
Operating expenses   151,539    127,000 
Loss from continuing operations   (264,902)   (212,095)
Discontinued operations:          
Loss from discontinued operations   -    (329,920)
           
Net loss   (264,902)   (542,015)
Net loss from non-contolling interest   -    131,968 
Net loss attributable to Presidential          
Realty Corporation  $(264,902)  $(410,047)

 

Continuing Operations:

 

Revenues increased by $5,552 primarily as a result of increased rental income of $6,348 at the Mapletree Industrial Center offset by a decrease in interest income of $796 on mortgage notes receivable.

 

Loss from continuing operations increased by $52,807. The increase in the loss was primarily due to higher operating expenses of $24,539 due to an approximate $10,000 decrease in reimbursed expenses for management salaries that had been reimbursed from the Hato Ray Property, and other increases in operating costs. Mortgage interest increased $4,712 due to additional borrowing during 2013. General and administrative expenses decreased $24,159 primarily due to the issuance of stock for board and professional fees instead of cash payments during the quarter. Stock based compensation increased $123,000 due to the issuance of shares for board fees for 2014 and other professional fees.

 

Balance Sheet

 

March 31, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013

 

Net real estate decreased by $12,518 primarily as a result of depreciation expense recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2014 on the MapleTree Industrial Center.

 

Net mortgage portfolio decreased by $335 as a result of mortgage amortization and payments received during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Assets related to discontinued operations decreased by $45,793, primarily due to a decrease in prepaid expenses related to the Hato Ray foreclosure.

 

Prepaid expenses decreased by $23,843 primarily due to accretion of the directors and officer tail policy purchased in 2011.

 

Other assets decreased $79,465 primarily due to the receipt of $77,642 of accrued investment income received from Broadway Partners Fund II after year end.

 

Accrued liabilities decreased by $394,318 primarily as a result of Nicholas W. Jekogian exchange of accrued officer salary of $425,000 for 1,700,000 warrants (see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements).

 

Liabilities related to discontinued operations decreased by $48,368 due to payments made related to the Hato Ray foreclosure.

 

Other liabilities remained consistent from period to period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We obtain funds for working capital and investment from our available cash.

 

At March 31, 2014, the Company had a loss from operations. This, combined with a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency, has been detrimental to our operations and could potentially affect our ability to meet our obligations and continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful execution of our business plan to achieve profitability, and to increase working capital, raising debt and/or equity. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.

 

At March 31, 2014, we had $476,634 in available cash, a decrease of $443 from $477,077 available at December 31, 2013. This decrease in cash was due to cash provided in operating activities of $5,040 offset by $6,126 of principal payments made on the MapleTree Industrial Center mortgage.

 

Operating Activities

 

Cash from operating activities includes interest on the Company’s mortgage portfolio and net cash received from rental property operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, cash received from interest on the Company’s mortgage portfolio was $728. Net cash received from rental property operations was approximately $50,000. Net cash received from rental property operations is before additions and improvements and mortgage amortization.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

While we are not required as a smaller reporting company to comply with this Item 3, we are providing the following general discussion of qualitative market risk.

 

Our financial instruments consist primarily of notes receivable and mortgage notes payable. Substantially all of these instruments bear interest at fixed rates, so our cash flows from them are not directly impacted by changes in market rates of interest. However, changes in market rates of interest impact the fair values of these fixed rate assets and liabilities. We generally hold our notes receivable until maturity or prepayment and repay our notes payable at maturity or upon sale of the related properties, and, accordingly, any fluctuations in values do not impact our earnings, balance sheet or cash flows. We also have investments in securities available for sale, which are reported at fair value. We evaluate these instruments for other-than-temporary declines in value, and, if such declines were other than temporary, would record a loss on the investments. We do not own any derivative financial instruments or engage in hedging activities.

  

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, herein referred to as the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The purpose of disclosure controls is to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

 

15
 

 

(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The principal executive officer and principal financial officer also conducted an evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, herein referred to as internal control, to determine whether any changes in internal control occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2014 that may have materially affected or which are reasonably likely to materially affect internal control. Based on that evaluation, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control during the three months ended March 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
